✦ Synopsis

"They seem as perfect, and as functional for all their beauty, has
spider webs. Indeed they were made for like purpose: to trap and disect
living morsels in the form of palpitating moments of time, instantaneous
perceptions, of brief visions of others who were to give us uncaptured,
breathing, even struggling in so betrend themselves - an illusion of
life. The extreme beauty of her writing is due greatly to one fact, that
the imprisionment of life and the words have as much a matter of the
senses Virginia Wolf's as it was a concern of the intellect." Eudora
Welty (The New York Times Book Review )
